Nixnote does not start and crashes with the following error:

This is on the 64bit version of Ubuntu 12.10; Nixnote version 1.4

What version of Java are you using?

[Mark]

Java Version 1.7.0_07 from Oracle Corporation

Just to add, Nixnote worked perfectly before I updated to 12,10 from 12.04

Same error happened to me.

Using:
java version "1.6.0_37"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01, mixed mode)

in ubuntu 12.10

[Pablo M. Russo]

With this java version:
java version "1.7.0_15"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea7 2.3.7) (7u15-2.3.7-0ubuntu1~12.10.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

Problem solved.

If the version of NixNote is the same, try looking at the CLASSPATH variable and seeing if there is some old Java files in the path. I did a quick Google search and it seems to imply there may be an older Java version somewhere causing issues.
